Накратко на български

Пътят на храната от семето или клетката до масата демонстрира всички етапи на хранителната верига. Разбирането на този процес помага на младите хора да осъзнаят значението на устойчивото земеделие при изчерпването на природните ресурси.

Science from Nature to your Table

Science from Nature to your table (Sci-NURTURE) reflects how environmentally sustainable agriculture and food production play an important role in our daily life. Unfortunately, the richness of resources is being depleted, the climate is changing, the lands on earth are getting dirtier, the soil is degraded, water resources are becoming insufficient, the quality and the amount of water in some regions of the world are quite low to drink and/or to irrigate, and the energy consumption is increasing substantially in each year. Apart from all of these, the world population is increasing rapidly. This means that the amount of food we need to provide to humanity will be nearly doubled in the future, while the resources we currently obtain our food from will stay the same or be even less. Owning, protecting, and being grateful for the resources we have in the world will only be possible by understanding the story of a long journey of a small seed or a cell to our dining tables. Sci- NURTURE aims to increase awareness of the sustainability of natural resources in society, especially the young generation and kids. The Sci-NURTURE demonstrates all levels of the human food chain (plant-based, animal-based, and seafood-based) to the public. The scientific facts and scientific developments in the human food chain from the very beginning stages in nature to our tables were shown by researchers step by step to the public. This helped young people appreciate the importance of the term “sustainability” behind each food they see on their table. In this sense, they have easily seen how our food is grown, produced, harvested, and arrived to us. Most families have such a disconnect with this process, and this project showed children what happens behind the scenes and the effort and energy it takes to bring food to our tables. All ages found it attractive but especially kids and pupils witnessed the science behind every demonstrated process and enjoyed the final product they created in the kitchen workshops.

Цел на проекта

Science from Nature to your table (Sci-NURTURE) reflects how environmentally sustainable agriculture and food production play an important role in our daily life. We will demonstrate the scientific facts and developments in the human food chains (animal-based, plant-based, and seafood-based) from the very beginning stages in nature through our table. Students, kids, and citizens will go through the story of nature components becoming food on our table by practicing all levels with researchers. This will help increase awareness of the sustainability of natural resources in society. Participants will appreciate the importance of terms such as ""sustainability"", ""water footprint"" and ""consumed energy"". Public awareness for researchers and innovation activities is expected to increase when they become aware of the contribution of scientists in their daily life. The Sci-NURTURE will rely on a wide area of subjects that cover most of the missions and Green Deal issues by practicing and demonstrating those issues to the public. Since the Eastern part of the country is less developed as compared to other regions in the country, science parks and other attraction centers are almost non-existent in the province. The young generation and the kids in the region are eager to see novelties of science and they are longing for any kind of attraction. Having a science-related organization in the city will create huge excitement for the public. By presenting scientific developments in different fields, Sci-NURTURE will provide youth with a path for picking their future profession. Finally, Ataturk University has been a partner of very few EU projects since only a couple of researchers apply for EU funds. There is a hesitation in researchers to go through all steps of getting EU funds. We believe our project will be a bridge not only between society and scientists but also between EU and scientists in the region and it will encourage the researchers to apply for EU funds.""
